The Mexican victory over French forces at Puebla on 5 May 1862 is the origin of Cinco de Mayo — a minor date in Mexico, observed chiefly in Puebla itself, and a much larger one in the United States.
The clock: Puebla keeps UTC−6. Its Great Pyramid of Cholula nearby has the largest base of any pyramid on Earth, and a church was built on top of it in the 16th century, when the pyramid already looked like a natural hill.
Puebla lies at 98.2°W. Its time zone, UTC−6, is built around the 90°W meridian. The 8.2° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 33 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:33 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC−6 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 13h 17m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 10h 59m. The swing between them is 2h 18m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Puebla the sun comes up earliest on 6 June at 05:54, while the latest sunset waits until 7 July at 19:14. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Puebla that civil twilight runs about 22 minutes at the equinox.
Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
